I've tried several different ways to do this and none have been successul over the long haul because they require such consistent upkeep from me. I THINK there is 3 months of stuff done there, with a year of some stuff, but I don't know for sure. Who has a good plan that has worked for your family? How do you keep up with it? What's your rotate vs. consume policy? What do you keep in LONG term stuff and why?

My FIL is a big fan of food storage so he kindly shows up with boxes of stuff that we don't eat. I've tried to tell him that's pointless, but he insists that just having the stuff is the important factor and we should NOT eat what he brings. He doesn't seem to get the "we don't eat it thus we won't eat it" concept. I don't like storing stuff I don't eat, but I do out of family peace. Anyone else have a meddling family member sure that their plan is the only good plan? How do you handle it? ]]> Emergency Preparedness Erudite http://www.bodynspirit.net/forums/f-79/food-storage-room-plan-1458/
